Mound Surgeon

He’s a man known much more for the surgery that’s named after him than his stellar pitching career.

But Edmonton baseball fans got to know Tommy John – the person – a bit during his time with the Triple-A team in Alberta’s capital city.

Ahead of Schedule

It might still be early, but Erik Sabrowski is already exceeding expectations in restarting his professional baseball journey.

Not only is the Edmonton-area product back from his second Tommy John surgery earlier than expected, but he has been nearly flawless in his first few appearances for the Akron RubberDucks.

Clawing His Way Back

Erik Sabrowski knew he wasn’t going to be on the lineup card when the Minor League Baseball season started.

That didn’t stop him from showing up early to Spring Training, looking to see what kind of progress he’s made since undergoing his second Tommy John surgery since 2018.

The Edmonton product is hoping to get back on the mound in the Cleveland Guardians’ system this summer.
